    No one is being mean. Anyone who's talking about the lame love scene said they really liked the rest of the episode. If you want this thread to turn into a circlejerk in which nobody can critique any part of the episode, then, well,

    Anyways, I felt the same way as a lot of others about this episode. Music was so perfect, and the cinematography was, as usual, incredible. Alliser was great in this episode. I've always thought that he was one of those dickheads who actually cared about his duty and did what he thought was best. Love scene was cheesy and lame, my butthole puckered a bit in cringe when she had to throw in the U KNO NOTHING line in as she died. But overall a minor complaint from a really good episode.

    You can't be edgy and unpredictable all of the time. Bring on the cliches! The fact that they irk the fanboys makes them all the more enjoyable.

    Yeah as much as I liked Ygritte-Jon I was more bummed at Grenn. I mean, the dude held the gate. He held the smurfing gate. Hero. I knew he was gonna get it when they lingered in that scene but come on can't a brother get a break.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.

    I didn't really like how they dealt with Grenn. It was like Jon forgot about the gate and Grenn having to hold it. You'd think he'd have rushed in there at some point. It's like we're missing some information in the show, like someone already came and told Jon that the gate held but everyone died or something. Jon stopping to look at the dead bodies and saying "he held the gate" took away from the moment instead of adding to it.

    Ygritte saying her line one last time was absolutely inevitable, and I'm surprised it surprised anyone. Having read the books, the moment that "you know nothing Jon Snow" became a meme, you knew those would be her last words.

    As far as it being out of character for Jon to stop fighting to cuddle Ygritte, I disagree. It's perfectly in keeping with his character. Jon Snow is soft, or at least softer than everyone else around him. Ygritte was a unique, wild woman, and Jon Snow will never know her equal, of course he should cuddle her as she dies. Jon Snow is unique in this show because he is a leader with a heart. That is his strength and also his weakness in the story. That's the whole point of his character. (well that and the whole bastard will rise thing)

    As for Ygritte. Well I think she was going to shoot Jon. I think a memory of love kept her from shooting right away, but she would have in the end if Olly hadn't ended her.

    BTW, I loved Olly's little head nod to Jon. Whatever else you want to say about the scene, that was fantastic.

    What was wrong with the scene was Ygritte mentioning the cave. That was the truly cheesy moment, the bad writing. The rest is understandably inevitable.

    I scoff at the "battlefield experts" who think they know what would or wouldn't happen in the midst of battle.

    Bought the fourth season soundtrack off iTunes. It's so beautiful.

    I can't stop repping Shaibana's posts because they're all filled with hilarious stuff.

    For my part yeah I got more feels from Grenn and Pyp than I did Ygritte, but that doesn't mean I felt no feels at all with Ygritte and Jon. Scene was touching.

    Just realized that after the airing of the last episode, I'm going to have to revert to my non-GoT set. I have literally no idea what I'm going to change into. Help!

    It's sort of like leaving your Christmas tree up well past January, if you get what I mean.

    If it was up to me I'd leave the Christmas Tree up all year long.
